PLANS to build junior-size goalposts on a Saltney residential grassed area were rejected by Saltney Town Council.

The request for goalposts was made for the grassed area, which is bounded by Tegid Way, Conway Close and Padarn Close and is owned by Flintshire County Council.

The town clerk reported an inspection of the area was carried out and found the grass was not level and almost all the houses backing on to the area had glazed conservatories to the rear of the properties.

Councillors unanimously voted to reject the plan.
